The fraction 3/4 which is equal to 9/12 is larger than 2/3 which is equal to 8/12. The fraction with the larger numerator is the larger fraction if the denominators are the same.
How do you calculate equivalent fractions?
What are equivalent fractions?
- Sometimes fractions can be simplified into smaller ones.
- These fractions are said to be equivalent.
- You can multiply the numerator and denominator in the smaller fraction, by the same number, and get the first fraction back.

What are Equivalent Fractions?
Equivalent fractions are fractions with different numbers representing the same part of a whole. They have different numerators and denominators, but their fractional values are the same.
How to make a fraction equivalent?

What is it called when a fraction is the same value but looks different?
Fractions that are the same in value but “look” different are known as equivalent fractions. How can that be? As long as you multiply or divide the top and bottom of a fraction by the same nonzero whole number, the resulting fraction will be equivalent to the original.
What does it mean when cross products are equal?
The cross products are equal. This means that they are equivalent fractions.
Is there a way to show that two fractions are equivalent?
There is also an easier way to show that two fractions are equivalent. We may call it the “Cross-Multiplication” Rule.
